Charlottetown, October 25, 1885, The Teacher Who advised her pupils to strengthen their minds by the use of Ayer’s Sar- saparilia, appreciated the truth that bodily health is essential to mental vigor. For persons of delicate and feeble coustitution, whether young or old, this medicine is remarkably beneficial. Be sure you get Ayer’s Sarsaparilla. ‘‘ Every spring and fall T take a num- ber of bottles of Ayer’s Sarsaparilla, and am greatly benefited.” — Mrs. James H.

Crerar, Palmyra, Md. “‘My daughter, twelve years of age, has suffered for the past year from General Debility.- A few weeks since, we began to give her Ayer’s Sarsaparilla. Her health has goats improved.”’—Mrs. Harriet H. attles, South Chelmsford, Mass. “About a year ago I began using Ayer’s Sarsaparilla as a remedy for debility and neuralgia resulting from malarial exposure inthe army. I was ina very bad condition, but six bottles of the Sar- un with occasional doses of Ayer’s Pills, have greatly improved my health. I am now able to work, and feel that I cannot say too much for your excellent remedies.””—F. A. Pinkham, South Moluncus, Me. ‘“‘My daughter, sixteen years old, is using Ayer’s +. aX with good ef- fect.’",— Rev. 8. J. Graham, United Brethren Church, Buckhannon, W. Va. “I suffered from Nervous Prostration, with lame back and headache, and have been much benefited by the use of Ayer’s Sarsaparilla.

Of the first class, no thought THE FAIR GOD. BOOK TWO, CHAPTER ILL. (Continued. } The naivete and enthusiasm of the hunter were new and charming to the prince, who was impelled to study him once more. He noticed how exactly the arms were rounded; that the neck was long, muscular, and | widened at the base, like the trunk of an oak; that the features, excited by the passing feel- ing, were noble and good; that the very carriage of the head was significant of apti- tude for brave things, if not command. Could | the better gods have thrown Io’ in such com- pany for self comparison? Was that the time they had chosen to wake withip him the longnigs of mind natural to coming manhood ? | He felt the inspiration of an idea new to him. | All his life had been passed in the splendid | monotony Of his father’s palace; he had been | permitted merely to hear of war, and that from a distance; of the noble passion for arms | he knew nothing. Accustomed to childish | wants, with authority to gratify them, am- bition for power had not yet disturbed him. But, as he listened, it was given him to see the emptiness of his past life, and understand the advantages he already possessed; he said to himself, ‘‘ Am I not master of grade and | opportunities, so coveted by this unknown hunter, and so far above his reach?” In that moment the contentment which had canopied his existence, like a calm sky, full of stars and silence and peace, was taken up, and whirled | away; his spirit strengthened with a rising | ambition and a oourage royally descended. | ‘** You are going to study with the ’tzin. I) would like to be your comrade,” he said. ** Laccept you, I give you my heart!” re- | | plied the hunter, with beaming face. ‘* We | will march, and sleep, and fight, and practice together. I will be true te you as shield to the warrior. Hereafter, O, prince, when you} would speak of me, cali me Hualpa; and, if you would make me happy, say of me, ‘ He is my comrade !’”’ The sun stood high in the heavens when | they reached the landing. Muounting a few | steps that led from the water's edge, they found themselves in a garden rich with flowers, beautiful trees, running streams, and trellised summer-houses—the garden of a prince—of Guatamozin, the true hero of his country. j j CHAPTER IV. GUATAMOZIN AT HOME. Guatamozin inherited a great fortune, ducal rank, aud an estate near Iztapalapan. Uutside the city, midst a garden that extended for miles around, stood his palace, built in the prevalent style, one storey high, but broad and wide enough to comfortably accommodate several thousand meu. His retainers, a legion in themselves, inhabited it for the mos: part; and whether soldier, artizan or farmer, each had his quarters, his exciusive possession as | against every one but the ‘tzin. The garden was almost entirely devoted to the cultivation of fruits and flowers. Hun- dreds of slaves, toiling there constantly under tusteful supervision, made and kept it beauti- ful past description. Rivulets of pure} water, spanned by bridges and bordered with | flowers, ran through every part over beds of | sand yeliowas gold. The paths frequently led to artificial lagoons, delightful for tne coolness that lingered about them, when the sun look- ed with his burning eye down upon the | valley ; for they were fringed with willow and sycamore trees, all clad with vines as with garments; and some were further garnished with little islands plumed with palms, and made attractive by kiosks. Nor were these al]. Fountains and cascades filled the air with sleepy songs; orange groves rose up, testifying to the clime they adorned; and in every path small tewles, on pedestals of stone, so mingled religion with the loveliness that there could be no admiration without wor- ship. rs and Hualpa, marvelling at the beauty they beheld, pursued a path, strewn with white sand, and leading across the garden, to the palace. A few armed men loitered about the portal, but allowed them to approach without questivi. From the ante-chamber they sent their names to the ‘tzin, and direct- ly the slave returned with word to Io’ to fol- low him, The study into which the prince was pre- sently shown was furnished with some plain- ness. An arm-chair, if such it may be calied, some rude tables and uncushioned benches, offered sma} encouragement to id eness, sand, giittering like crushed crystal, cover-| ed the floor, and, iustead of tapestry, the walls were hung with maps ot the Empire, and provinces the most distant. everal piles of M55.—the books of tue Aztecs—~ with parchment and writing maierials, jay on a table; and half concealed am nyst them was a harp, such as we have seen i to hands of the roya! minstrels. ‘* Weicome, Io’, welcome!” siid the ‘tzia in his full voice, ‘‘ You have come at lenyth, jafter so many promises come last of ali my friends. When you were here before, you were a child, and 1 a boy like you now. Let us go and talk it over.” And leading him to ‘*T remember the visit,” said Io’. ‘It was many years ago. You were studying then, and I tind you studying yet.” A serious thought rose to the ‘tzin’s mind, “You do not understand me, Io’. Shut up in your father’s palace, your life is passing Hear, and believe me. He who would be wise must study. There are is required ; they eat, sleep, are merry, and die, and have no hall in heaven; but the second must think, toiland be patient; they must know, and, if possible, kuow everything. God and ourselves are the only source of knowledge. I would not have you despise humanity, but all that is from ourselves is soon learned. There is but one inexhaustible fountain cf intelligence, and that is Nature, the God Supreme. See those volumes ; they are of men, full of wisdom, but nothing original; they are borrowed from the book o1 deity —the always opened book, of which the aky is one chapter, the earth the other. Ver deep are the tevsens of life and heaven there taught.

There have been some telling strange stories about you to the king.” ** About me?” ‘*They say you want to be king ”—the listener’s face was passive—‘‘and that on Quetzal’s day you were looking for opportu- nity to attack my father.” Still there was no sign of emotion. ‘‘ Your staying at home, they say, is but a pretence to cover your de- signs.” ** And what more, Io’ ?’” “They say you are taking soldiers into your pay; that you give mouey, and practise all manner of arts, to become popular in Te- nochtitlan; and that your delay in entering the arena on the day of the combat had some thing to do with your conspiracy.” For a moment the noble countenance of the ‘tzin was disturbed. “A tying catalogue! But is that all?” **No”—and [o's voice trembled—*“ I am a secret a messenger from the queen Tecalco, my mother. She bade me say to you, that last night Iztlil, the Tezcucan, had audience with the king, and asked Tula for his wife.” Guatamozin sprang from his seat more p.llid than ever in battle. “And what said Montezuma ?” ‘*This morning he came to the queen, my mother, and told her about it; on your account she objected; but he became angry, spoke harshly of you, swore Tvlu should not wed with you; he would banish you first.” Through the silent cell the ’tzin strode gloomily; the blow awakened him. Mualox was wrong; men cannot make themselves almost gods; by having many ills, and bearing them bravely, they can only become heroes. After a long struggle he resumed his calmness and . ** What more from the queen ?” ** Only, that as she was helpless, she left everything to you. She dares not oppose the king.” ‘**T understand !” exclaimed the 'tzin start- ing from the beach again. ‘* The Tezcucan is my enemy. Crossing the lake, the night be- fore the combat. he told me he leved Tula, and charged me with designs against the Em - pire, and cursed the king and his crown. Next day he fought under my challenge. The malice of a mean man cannot be allayed by | kindness. But for me the tamanes would have buried him with the Tlascaiaus, I sent him to my house; my slaves tended him; yet his hate was only sharpened.” (T'o be continued. ) Eczema, Itchy, Sealy, Skin Tor- Cu es.
